The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is estimated to affect more than 10% of the world population and is continuously increasing [1,2]. Various chronic illnesses can lead to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Diabetes mellitus stands as the primary cause in numerous developed and develo...
To better understand the role of the urea-to-creatinine ratio in chronic kidney disease patients, we assessed the epidemiology of the urea-to-creatinine ratio among hospitalised chronic kidney disease patients, and the association between the urea-to-creatinine ratio and inpatient clinical outcomes. ...
